What we do

ESG and Sustainability Strategy

Sustainability strategies are no longer optional for a business. A combination of regulation, legislation, and pressure from stakeholders and customers combined with a necessity to remain competitive have propelled Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues to the forefront of boardrooms and to the top of senior leadership mindset.

Businesses of any size and scale can design and implement an effective ESG and sustainability strategy.

While there are standards, benchmarks, regulatory and best-practice implications for any sustainability programme, there is no one-size-fits-all strategy for any business. A strategy must be robust, practical and ambitious, yet achievable. It should be entrenched within the wider business strategy and not an abstract, stand-alone piece. One of the greatest benefits of a comprehensive sustainability strategy is that it can drive positive outcomes across all areas of a business, from supply chains and product development to employee engagement and sales and marketing. It can even be as far-reaching as to help determine the way a business is financed and how its ownership is structured.

Big multinational companies can have a huge effect on the world because they can make an instruction… which is more than you can do to an electorate. Sir David Attenborough

In the past there have been various myths that encompassing sustainable principles within a business may somehow be contrary to commerciality and may impact shareholder returns, however, quite the opposite is true. An insightful strategy will help mitigate risk within a business, leverage commercial opportunities and increase value. The ESG and sustainability landscape moves quickly and is continuously evolving. A well-planned and robust strategy can also evolve, grow and respond to changing externalities. There has never been a more exciting (or critical!) time for your business to start its sustainability journey.

Strategy

The environmental, social and governance (ESG) and sustainability landscape is continuously changing. Increasing stakeholders demands, changes in regulations and pressures from the financial sector all have significant impact on the development, direction and focus of a business’s sustainability strategy.

Navigating the ever-evolving Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) landscape can prove challenging for many businesses. The volume of mandatory ESG disclosures is increasing, the scope of companies required to report is expanding, and stakeholder expectations are changing.
